Friday, April 3, 2015 - This is a fantastic bottle of wine. I don't know how this can have anything but 90+ reviews. We popped and poured, just for a taste, and then decanted for about 2-3 hours. Nice color, slight bricking as noted below. Barnyard/forest floor nose; musty, yet attractive and begging to be tasted. Herbs and dark berry palate, perhaps some mushroom and leather hidden in there as well. Just kept getting better and better in our glasses as the night progressed. I am thrilled to have three more bottles. Absolutely delicious.
